Flaming Bride

@kurtcobain knew what was up 💗 • Makeup is an amazing tool that we can use to look however we want but ultimately when you take it off you need to feel at peace with the person staring back at you. Practicing huge amounts of compassion towards others will lead to compassion for yourself 💗💗 • Yesterday my awesome hypnotherapist @zeenathypnotherapy told me “you’ll be you for as long as you’re alive, make friends with yourself.” (I hope I got that right Zeenat!) 💗💗💗 • Anyway I love you and there is nothing you can do about it 🤣😘 • #Coolbrides #modernbridal #beyourselfbeamazing #womensupportingotherwomen #chicbride #ecobride #millennialmarriage #nontraditionalwedding #bodypositivepower #makeuphelp #Eastlondonwedding #Londonbridetobe #Hertfordshirewedding #Londonbusinesswomen #shoplondon #bridetobe2021 #modernbridalhair #modernbridalmakeup #empowerwomen #womensupportingwomen

Bridal is what YOU make it. • There is no one way to be a bride. We get so stuck in the comfort blanket images of Pinterest that sometimes we forget what we actually love. • This is why it’s so important that I get to know know you, it’s this knowledge of you as the absolutely incredible human you are that helps me create a look for you on your wedding day. • Thinking of booking your trial?

I REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME I WATCHED THIS TED TALK (ted talks were all the rage a few years ago, where did they go?) It’s called “The Art of Asking” by @amandapalmer. Thanks AFP 🖤 • In the past I’ve struggled to ask for help, I hate the feeling of “bothering” someone but what I’ve realised is this: We grow and learn from helping each other and it’s really beautiful. • Anyway don’t take my word for it, find the ted talk on YouTube and watch it for yourself. It’s powerful stuff. • As always if you leave me a ⭐️ in the comments I’ll pop you a DM to talk more about your wedding plans.

Want to learn to wear a red lip? Start with the red lip 💋 build the rest of your makeup around it. • You’ll use a lot less of your other products when you start with the most dramatic area first - also works great with a smokey eye. • What’s the part of your face you like to emphasise the most? • #newfollowers #londongirl #queer #women #roomforeveryone #womeninbusiness #womeninsipringwomen #communityovercompetition #makeuplook #coolbride #londonbride #tipsformakeup #coolbride #feminstbride #antibride #antibridetribe #flamingbride #londonbride #hertfordshirebride #mostcuriousweddingfair #londongirl #coolgirl

LET’S HAVE SOME FUN - WHO IS THE MOST FAMOUS PERSON YOU’VE EVER MET? • When my brother graduated Fifteen we got to hang out with @jamieoliver. I can’t be cool around famous people (also the reason I never went into red carpet makeup!) • I fully embarrassed @bighas___ with my groupie behaviour but I was very star struck. • What about you, who's the most famous person you've ever met in real life? • #gettoknowme #gettoknowyou #questions #famouspeople #starstruck #haveyoumetanyonefamous #justforfun

AND I LOVE IT! • Your skin texture is part of who you are, totally unique to you. Part of the reason I love natural makeup so much is because you get to see the skin underneath. • Let’s embrace the things that make you YOU. • How do you feel about your skin? • #newfollowers #queer #women #roomforeveryone #womeninbusiness #womeninsipringwomen #communityovercompetition #makeuplook #skincare #skinhastexture #showmeyourtexture #ipreview via @preview.app

BRAIDS ARE BIG NEWS • 2021 is the year of owning your style and doing whatever the hell you want. • What do you really want from your wedding hair? • Drop me a ⭐️ and I’ll DM you for a VERY informal chat • #newfollowers #queer #women #roomforeveryone #womeninbusiness #womeninsipringwomen #communityovercompetition #makeuplook #coolbride #feminstbride #antibride #antibridetribe #flamingbride #londonbride #hertfordshirebride #mostcuriousweddingfair #londongirl #coolgirl #coolbridalhair #modernbridalhair #coolhairstyles #ipreview via @preview.app

Hi it’s your natural hair texture here, nice to meet you! • Ok so I’m not your natural hair texture, sorry - but I DO want you to find out what your hair is really like. • During lockdown we’ve embraced a more “chilled” approach to our hair (we’ve had no choice!) but when was the last time you washed your hair and left it to dry naturally? • CHALLENGE ME: snap a pic of that natural, air dried hair and send it to me. Let me see if I can recommend a product to get you loving your natural hair. So many of us hide the texture we could be working with to have our best hair ever 🖤 #newfollowers #queer #women #roomforeveryone #womeninbusiness #womeninsipringwomen #communityovercompetition #makeuplook #coolbridalhair #modernbridalhair #coolhairstyles #naturalhair #hairadvice #challengeme #dmme #ipreview via @preview.app

SO WHY ARE WE NOT ALL REPRESENTED? • There is a change coming here on Flaming Bride but wedding suppliers I need your help. • I serve brides who want natural hair and makeup from all backgrounds, all spectrums of the rainbow, all sizes and all ages but I need to do more. I need to reach the brides who want hair and makeup but constantly feel underrepresented by our industry. • Is this bride you? • If it is please message me because I’d love to talk to you about what you’d like to see more from hair and makeup artists and see if I can help you in some way. • #newfollowers #queer #women #roomforeveryone #womeninbusiness #womeninsipringwomen #communityovercompetition #womenpower #bridalmakeup #makeupartsitlondon #lgbtqwedding

EFFORTLESS, COOL, CURLY, NATURAL - you see these words a lot what is YOUR style? 🔥 You’ve said yes, booked your photographer and maybe even found the dress but what about hair and makeup? 🔥 The words “bridal hair and makeup” might bring up a whole host of looks that don’t feel very you. 🔥 This is where I come in. I can help you translate the style that YOU LOVE into your wedding day hair and makeup. 🔥 Don’t really know your style? I can help you there too. All I need to do is get to know you. 🔥 Let’s give it a shot - If you can imagine us hanging out on your wedding day, that’s a really good place start. DM me and ask me any of your hair and makeup questions/concerns/issues, feel under represented? Let me know. I want to know YOU before we even discuss your trial. 🔥 I can’t wait to hear from you 🖤🖤🧡🖤🖤

I had this post planned for today with a totally different meaning but I realised it’s perfect for today. Inside I’m so angry and I’m so sad - NOW is the time to make a change. We have to do this together MEN and women. Make keeping women safe on the streets the social norm!

You can wear a red lip and still look natural. The key to natural looking makeup is all in the skincare, prep and base. Swipe to see the close up shot I took of the beautiful Megha. • Do you have any concerns about your wedding makeup or hair?

Have you ever done this? I get so excited about new products that I want to layer everything on at once but it really is such a bad idea. You could accidentally write off something amazing because you won’t know which product didn’t work. Take it easy. Your skin will thank you! 🧡do you have a favourite skincare product you cannot live without?
